2 Data inconsistency occurs in True Copy secondary volume
Phenomena The following phenomena may occur in the secondary volume of True
Copy (hereinafter referred to as “TC”) pair.
OPEN volume: A data inconsistency occurs in the secondary volume
of TC pair.
Mainframe volume: When the host reads the secondary volume, EQC
(Equipment check) is reported to the host (SSB EC=5860).
Severity (High, Medium, Low) High
Conditions of Occurrence May occur when all the following conditions A, B, C, and D are met,
or all A, B, C and E are met.

A. RAID700 All current versions


B. TC configuration
C. In the line between MCU and RCU, a data transfer delay of 15
seconds or more occurs
D. Initial copy or update copy is performed with HostModeOption 51
OFF (Round Trip Set Up Option)
E. Initial copy is performed with all the following conditions (a) to (c).
(a)HostModeOption 51 ON
(b)HostModeOption 65 ON (Round Trip Extended Set Up Option)
(c)Full installation of MPB (2Module (32MP)) in DKC of RCU side
Causes and Updates In the MCU side of True Copy, if it does not receive a response to an
update (initial) copy instruction from the RCU side, it requests to
cancel the update (initial) copy instruction for which no response is
returned, and then it gives an update (initial) copy instruction again. In
the RCU side, when the request for cancelling the update (initial) copy
instruction is received from the MCU side, it performs the cancel
processing for all the pending update (initial) copy instructions. Due to
a microcode bug in the RCU side, however, the RCU side does not
return a cancel response to the MCU side for all update (initial) copy
instructions for which the cancel processing is performed. Therefore
the subsequent new update (initial) copy instruction and the update
(initial) copy instruction for which the RCU side does not return a
cancel response are processed wrongly. As a result, a data
inconsistency occurs in the RCU side.
